8079. Under The Blood

1 He who will wear garments white
Must pass under the blood;
He who reigns where there’s no night,
Has passed under the blood.

Refrain:
Oh, pass under the blood, my brother,
Oh, pass under the blood;
He who dwells where Jesus is,
Has passed under the blood.

2 He who will atonement plead
Must pass under the blood;
He who follows where Jesus will lead,
Must pass under the blood. [Refrain]

3 He who will from sin be free
Must pass under the blood;
He who will his Savior see
Must pass under the blood. [Refrain]

4 He who seeks a conscience clear
Must pass under the blood;
He who finds a Savior dear
Must pass under the blood. [Refrain]

5 He who would be satisfied
Must pass under the blood;
He who would be glorified
Must pass under the blood. [Refrain]
